Squash Pen/Ink

Here is a (slightly blurry) picture of a pen drawing of a squash. I used an 05 Micron Pen. This was a good challenge in using pen strokes to define the contours. Using strokes (pen or brush) to define the contours and shapes of objects helps make it appear to occupy space. It allows you to achieve changes in surface quality without having to change value much (or color, necessarily).
